Department of Mathematics, University of Toronto
Location
For over 150 years, the department of mathematics at U of T has provided one of the very best mathematics programs for undergraduates in North America and been the main training ground for Canadian mathematicians. With 43 faculty members, it is the strongest mathematics department in Canada, and it ranks among the best 15 departments in North America. Two generous donors have provided the department with endowed chairs: the Ted Mossman Chair in Mathematics and the Norman Stuart Robertson Chair in Applied Mathematics.
One measure of the stature of the department is the quality of our graduates. They gain admittance to the best graduate programs in the world, attain academic positions in Canada and beyond and are sought after by computer, financial, telecommunications and other technological industries, reflecting the importance of mathematics to advanced careers in a knowledge-based economy.
Mathematics is undergoing an explosion in new ideas and techniques, as well as in the understanding of basic mathematical structures. The discipline is also central to areas of study from economics to engineering, where it provides theoretical concepts and fundamental language. Our faculty are major players in mathematics at the international level with active research programs in analysis, applied mathematics, geometry and number theory.
The department is also a vital force in undergraduate education with more than 5,500 undergraduate students in mathematics classes across the university. Mathematics is continuously adapting its curriculum to correspond to the changing discipline and the needs of other departments for mathematics instruction. A commitment to quality teaching is also evident in the four Faculty of Arts and Science Outstanding Teaching Awards won by mathematics faculty over a six-year period.
